president obama ended the iraq war. mitt romney would have left 30,000 troops there and called bringing them home tragic. obama's brought 30,000 soldiers back from afghanistan and has a responsible plan to end the war. romney calls it obama's biggest mistake. it's time to stop fighting over there and start rebuilding here. >> so of all you thought about of the wars we were fighting and you're trying to pick your candidate, is there a difference in terms of getting out of afghanistan? i thought they were both committed to 2014. aren't they? >> but there is a difference in terms of the emphasis that they're highlighting in this ad. there were several times where mitt romney has said more troops, keep the troops, stay the course. >> no date certain. >> no date certain. so the differences that exist are the ones they highlight in that ad and it's a smart thing for the obama campaign to do because those are popular positions as well as skillful ones. >> the country is sick to death of war. we are war -- a war weary country.

barack obama was against mandates. we've got a mandate because it was the practical outcome of the discussions with pelosi and reid. i think if you look to the way myth govern mitt governed in massachusetts that's about the way he'll govern as president. >> jesse in california said if you can't drink their booze, eat their food and sleep with their women and vote against them in the morning you shouldn't be in this business. do you think -- you're laughing because you've heard it before. do you think governor romney is that ruthless so say i'll go with my robes on at liberty university, sign on to the neocons but in the end i'll be a man of judgment. how does he cut the ties with those people? glue don't cut the ties with them. practical decisions -- >> is he a moderate? >> practical decisions come along and you make the best possible decision. your ideology guides you but doesn't control you. ronald reagan lowered taxes, and two times he raised taxes because he got a good deal with tip o'neill and made a good deal. >>

so is barack obama. eisenhower kept us out of vietnam. he explicitly said i don't want to fight wars -- >> kept us out of suez, too. >> libya was an eisenhower type operation. don't only -- >> the hidden hand. >> yeah. only do the things that the united states is uniquely available to provide. so provide things like intelligence that other countries can't, but don't put boots on the ground, don't put pilots in danger. >> well, colin powell said he has concerns about some of romney's views on foreign policy. let's listen to the general. >> one day he had a strong view about staying in afghanistan, but then on monday night he agrees to withdrawal. same thing on iraq. almost every issue that was discussed on monday night, governor romney agreed with the president with some nuances, but this is quite a different set of foreign policy views than he had earlier in the campaign, and my concern, which i have expressed previous in a public way is that sometimes i don't sense that he has thought through the issues as thoroughly as he should have. >

but this puts, to my mind, barack obama's strongest position. he is very good at a moment like this. and so i think americans are, for better or worse, if we understand politics, being reintroduced to their president in a meek, unprecedented way that could very well have a great deal of significance in how they decide to vote in a week. >> how long do you think it will take for donald trump to take a crack at engineering this? >> well, you know, already there's been blog traffic saying absurd things. but, you know, look, here's the bottom line reality. as much as we suggest that the president of the united states looks good in this situation, that it does give him a platform, there is great peril in this and there's great political challenges. if something isn't handled well, people can get very angry and we're looking at the start of a storm. three or four days into a natural disaster when power hasn't been restored, people can get very angry and very upset. so i think we should recognize that barack obama has the advantage of incouple ben see
